No, we do not. Lejre Land of Legends has 43 hectares of some of Denmark’s most beautiful natural landscape for guests to enjoy. This corresponds to 430,000 square meters, which means we have plenty of space for everyone. On the busiest days there can be a lot of cars in the parking lot, but we have expanded with extra space at the far end of the parking lot.
When you arrive, you have to go through the entrance, and there can be a queue in the morning on our busiest days. Luckily, it’s quick to get through as the queue is split into several as soon as you enter the entrance. This way we make sure that everyone gets in with the least possible waiting time.

Disability and wheelchairs
You can read more about disability conditions in Lejre Land of Legends here:
Is Lejre Land of Legends wheelchair friendly?
Yes, to a certain extent. Many of the roads in Lejre Land of Legends are not paved and therefore depend on whether it is muddy or dry. The houses in the Iron Age Village have been made accessible with wheelchair ramps so you can get in. Our staff are also on hand to help you in and out of the historic buildings.
The Blue Route is the most disabled-friendly route, leading to the Iron Age Village, the Viking Marketplace, Bonfire Valley, the Historic Workshops, Café and Shop. It can usually be passed by most manual wheelchairs, depending on the physical condition of the user and caregivers. However, experience shows that some stretches can be difficult for electric wheelchairs to pass.
Weather and wind also determine how easy the route is, and this can change from day to day.
Are there disabled toilets in Lejre Land of Legends?
Yes, there are. You will find them in the Welcome Center.

If it has rained a lot in the last few days, it can be difficult to pull a pushchair or pram in some places, as some areas have become muddy.

No, unfortunately you can’t.
